Versuchsvorschrift
8.7 g. 4-(2,3-epoxypropoxy)-6-hydroxymethyl-indole (cf. the preparation of the starting material in Example 15) were dissolved in 50 ml. anhydrous pyridine. To this solution were added dropwise, while stirring and cooling to 5°-10° C., 5 ml. pivalic acid chloride, 1.5-2 hours after the ending of the addition, the reaction mixture was poured into ice water. The aqeuous phase was extracted 3 or 4 times with diethyl ether. The ethereal extract was successively washed with 1 N sulfuric acid, a saturated aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate and water, then dried, treated with active charcoal and fullers' earth and subsequently evaporated. The crude 4-(2,3-epoxypropoxy)-6-pivaloyloxymethyl-indole thus obtained (12.5 g.; about 100% of theory) was further reacted without further purification.
